On Fairy Lit Night Poem by Mark Heathcote

On a fairy-lit night
When the snow shone so bright
And I held you so tight
I felt my love shine through you
I felt the melting
Of every storm cloud blowing
Away under a summer breeze
Like a broken healing shard
I felt my love shining in the moonlight
Blooming like a forest orchid
Rocking like a child in his crib
On a fairy-lit night
When the snow shone so bright
And I held you so tight
I felt my love shine through you
As we rolled like a snowball
Jointly surrendering to the morning dew
Oh, I felt the melting
Of two teardrops melting in mine
And your deep dark warm sparkling eyes
I felt the gravity as we rolled
In that white midnight snow
To a poet's den only we'll both know.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh roll-with-me
Like an Egyptian rug under the night
Of a burning sun
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, roll-with-me
Like a glacier river into a red tropic sun
Where the thunder in our hearts
Has-only now just begun to burn and play
Out its magic song before our eyes.
